    Serves: 4

    INGREDIENTS

    SALMON
    1⁄2 side of Big Glory Bay King Salmon, skinned and pinboned
    fresh red chili
    chives, chopped
    fresh lime

    GINGER, LIME AND SOY DRESSING
    100ml grapeseed oil
    100ml olive oil
    30ml soy sauce
    30ml sherry vinegar
    30ml mirin
    1 clove garlic, minced
    1 tablespoon candied ginger and liquid to taste
    1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
    Sea salt

    CANDIED GINGER
    2 thumbs ginger, peeled and diced small
    100ml water
    100 grams sugar

    METHOD

    CANDIED GINGER: Put the ginger into enough cold water to just cover, bring to a boil. Strain and repeat this process a further 4 times.

    Put the boiled ginger, sugar and water in a pan and simmer gently for a further 15-20 minutes until tender. Chill and keep on the side.

    SASHIMI: Slice the Big Glory Bay salmon along the fillet dividing the belly from the top side. Remove any brown flesh areas. Slice into 5mm thick slices and lay gently on a serving plate.

    Whisk all the dressing ingredients together until combined. Season with sea salt.

    Dress the salmon with enough dressing just to cover. Add a slice of chilli to each piece, chives and a slice of fresh lime.
